## Abstract We report a case of a large fetal oropharyngeal teratoma in a 19βweek fetus evaluated with 3βdimensional (3D) sonography. The 3D sonographic surface and maximum mode rendering of the tumor allowed detailed visualization of the mass lesion and thus enabled active patient participation in

β¦ Synopsis
Fcur cases of fetal teratomas arising from the sacrococcygeal and oro- pharyngeal areas are reported. The diagnosis, method of management, and grade of tumor are compared with previous experience in the literature. Pharyngeal lesions carry a worse prognosis for survival compared to the more common sacrococcygeal type (SCTI. Atraumatic delivery and early repair of the lesion contribute to prolonged survival and lack of complications in cases of sacrococcygeal teratomas.
